Need the factory answer on your Case IH DX29 or DX33? This 702-page repair manual PDF (OEM #87059223) covers both compact tractors from cylinder head overhaul to hydrostatic transmission rebuild. Inside: full electrical schematics spanning both chassis, complete hydraulic circuit diagrams for the pump, control valves, and remote circuits, plus a thorough troubleshooting section for every major system. You get exploded assembly views across the gear transmission, FWD front axle, differential, PTO, brakes, and steering, all the way through clutch overhaul and engine fuel system procedures. Set your DX29 injection pressure to 118 bar (1,706 psi) and torque injector assemblies to 59–69 N·m before chasing any hard-start fault. No more forum guesses on torque values. Bookmarked by system and keyword-searchable: pull up the right section on your tablet before you touch a wrench.

Case IH DX29, DX33 Common Problems This Manual Covers
Case IH DX29 hydraulic system loses pressure and implement rises too slowly or fails to lift p. 441
Inspect the suction filter for restrictions and clean or replace it as required. Perform a system relief valve pressure test as outlined on page 441. Verify the relief valve setting reaches 147 bar (2133 psi). If pressure remains low, check the gear pump capacity.
Manual Section: Hydraulic System TroubleshootingEngine turns over but fails to start or stalls immediately after 30 minutes of running p. 147
Check the fuel delivery system and test the injection pump pressure. For the DX29 model, verify the injection pressure reaches 118 bar (1706 psi) as shown on page 147. Remove the injector assembly and torque the replacement to 59 to 69 Nm (43 to 51 ft. lbs.).
Manual Section: Engine Fuel System TroubleshootingTransmission slips under load or clutch fails to engage smoothly when shifting gears p. 187
Measure the clutch disc thickness as detailed on page 187. Replace the disc if it wears beyond the allowable limit of 7.2 mm (0.28 inches). Install the new clutch plate kit and torque the mounting bolts to 22.6 to 28.4 Nm (16.6 to 21 ft. lbs.).
Manual Section: Clutch TroubleshootingStarter motor energizes but engine refuses to start or pinion shaft fails to advance p. 674
Test the electrical system and verify the starter motor current draw under no load. Ensure the draw is less than 100 amps as specified on page 674. Inspect the wiring harnesses and battery connections. Replace the starter motor if the pinion motor rotates without transmitting rotation.
